I love this recipe. It's from Rachel Ray.

Thai Slaw Salad:
1 (16 ounces) prepared shredded cabbage (coleslaw mix) from produce department
1/4 European seedless cucumber, sliced into thin sticks
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
3 scallions, thinly sliced on bias
20 leaves fresh basil, shredded
Dressing:
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup white distilled or rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar or 2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Garnish:
Toasted sesame seeds
Combine vegetables in a bowl. Combine dressing ingredients in a small plastic container and shake vigorously for 1 minute. Drizzle sauce over vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Let stand 10 minutes and re-toss before serving and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
Yield: 5 to 6 servings


If I'm feeling lazy I just make it with the coleslaw mix & the dressing & leave out the other veggies. It's still really good & no mayo so it stays better on a hot day longer.

Re: What are you bringing

oops I just saw your requests, it's a no bake cheesecake so I was skeptical but it came out really good. I should mention that I used a tofu imitation cream cheese b/c I'm lactose intolerant so it came out more like a pudding pie. I'm sure if you use regular cream cheese it'll be more cheesecakey. Here is the recipe:

Nutella cheesecake

INGREDIENTS

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1 (13 ounce) jar chocolate hazelnut spread 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust

DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Blend in Nutella and vanilla until no streaks remain. pour into crust. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
